Our Video Game Certification (or Our Video Game Exams, however you'd like to refer to it) is one of the weirdest games coming in 2008, and as both DS fans (and therefore training fans) and retrogamers, we were looking forward to it with genuine interest.Even importers will have to wait to test their skills with teensy bits of Xevious and Mappy, as Namco Bandai has announced a delay of the title, from March to a vague "2008." The stated reason is to improve the game's quality, which could mean anything from more Wonder Momo content to less Wonder Momo content. We're a little upset about having to wait, but to be honest the first half of 2008 looks to be so comically overloaded with games that most of us would be forced to pass on an import gem like this anyway.

Sorry, but Mappy predated Jet Set Willy by at least a year, maybe two. But the play mechanic is totally different (Mappy just bounces on trampolines with no ability to jump, but has the ability to open and close doors on his level from far away) so I don't think there's really a connection.
